Hey all proud owner of an 86 gt convertible has the 302 HO, i would like some advice if anyone can kindly help me, ok the issue im having is bought the car with the top end fully disassembled, valve covers, lower and upper intakes throttle body egr ect ect. Ok i put everything back together and i put a new msd coil, distributor and rotor, i had to manually set the timing which wasnt to bad, the exhaust was shot so i removed the old cats and mufflers, at the moment i got it running but its lacking power when i put in drive or any driven gear, otherwise when not in park or nuetral, i put new plugs and wires checked timing again and all is correct, but its still running really rough ,the other day i had actual flaming exhaust shooting out of the driver side exhaust, i went over everything and everything seems to be correct am i missing something? I just dont know what direction to go, im a decent wrench turner just at a stand still.
